Publisher's Synopsis
This book unfolds a more biblical perspective on parenting than merely adhering to a list of rules.
In this Christian Parents Book, you will discover:
- Chapter one begins with 7 principles that address why Christian parents sometimes have more problems with their adult children. After trying hard to do everything right, many Christian parents are surprised to find tension and heartache in their relationship with their adult children.
- Chapter two, three and four explore the new dynamics of the extended family and how a Bible based lifestyle can bring God into your family in a new way.
- Chapter five talks about God's plan for grandparents and how they are called to inspire their grand kids.
- Chapter six is worth the price of the book. It takes a hard look at parental disappointment and what to do about it. If you are a normal parent, the pain of disappointment caused by adult children can be destructive to your relationship. Chapter six explores areas of parent/adult child disappointments that most parents have never thought about.
- Part Two of the book has answers to the hard questions most parents ask themselves when things go wrong. Each chapter is a question that you might ask your counselor. What follows is not a quick Christian answer, but thoughtful comments that will help you come to your own specific answer for your family.
Think about these principles and start your role as parents today!
